Rate sheets now carry the whole crew: foreman, superintendent and apprentice

Most shops keep only the journeyman rows of their wage card in STrOp. A GC's T&M rate sheet needs the whole crew. The rest of the crew can now be filled in from the journeyman rates.

Under Settings → Labor Rates, edit an agreement and fill in Crew classifications for rate sheets:

  • Foreman premium and Superintendent / General Foreman premium: a $/hr or % premium on the journeyman base wage. Fringes match journeyman.
  • Apprentice row on sheets: the period to print. Its wage is that period's percentage of journeyman, from the apprentice ladder. Pension and vacation are scaled per period; health & welfare and training are paid in full.

Each derived row follows the journeyman rate for the same date. Wage-card raises, the labor window and forecast raises all carry through on their own. If you've entered a real foreman or apprentice row for a date, that row prints instead.

The company rate sheet, each bid's rate sheet and the contract's change-order rates all use the same rows. Leave a premium blank and that row doesn't print.
